Enterprise-class, ZFS NAS powered by Intel® Xeon® ® E5 with dual active controllers QNAP is launching a new series of Enterprise Storage (ES) NAS to address the needs of the most demanding clients. Simultaneously, QNAP is unleashing the full potential of the QES (QNAP Enterprise System) operating system, with our promise to provide and support QES with the highest level of excellence. Near-zero downtime availability The Enterprise ZFS NAS architecture has a powerful back-end storage base powered by high-performance dual Intel® Xeon® E5-2420 v2 processors, providing uninterrupted service and near-zero downtime with its dual active controllers geared for datacenter storage. With the built-in failover mechanism, if one controller fails, the other will seamlessly take control of disk volumes and storage resources without service interruption. The failed controller can then be replaced even when the system is still operating, achieving high availability. Active-Active HA Dual-controller PSU PSU BBU CPU BBU CPU Controller A SAS Controller B SAS NL SAS SAS SSD SATA SSD Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) design QNAP enterprise-class ZFS NAS adopts a Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) design in many of its hardware components, allowing you to replace damaged parts including storage controllers, fan modules, power supply units, battery backup units (BBU) to attain a high level of system serviceability and reliability. The controller can be easily accessed and replaced without needing to open the chassis. PSU BBU Fan Power supply units and Battery Backup Units (BBU) for battery-protected NVRAM can be easily replaced without needing tools and opening the chassis. 1 Fan modules can also be easily replaced. Enterprise ZFS NAS Flexible storage capacity expansion The Enterprise ZFS NAS product line and its corresponding JBOD expansion enclosures all provide paths to storage controllers to prevent system downtime from component or connection failure.If an external JBOD cable is disconnected, it can still run normallyThe connection of multiple storage expansion units via mini-SAS ports helps to daisy-chain multiple expansion units while the system is running for online capacity expansion with higher density, efficiency and capacity expandability. Mini-SAS ES1602 JBOD ES1642dc Redundant cross loop configuration The QNAP Enterprise JBOD (EJ) expansion series includes the EJ 1602 (SAS 12 Gb/s) and EJ 1600 (SAS 6 Gb/s) for greater scalability in storage capacity, enabling you to maximize the return on your IT investment in virtualized storage infrastructure. The raw capacity of the ES1642dc/ ES1640dc can be expanded up to 1 petabyte (PB) with the EJ expansion series enclosures. Protection against single-point failure Enterprise-grade caching QNAP ZFS NAS utilizes NVRAM for write cache. The cache is also protected by a battery backup unit (BBU) to safeguard against power outages, and ensures that data will be written from the NVRAM to the mSATA SSD module. BBU Copy To Flash Copy To Flash Write Back Cache Read Mirroring Read Write Back Cache Read Software errors in semiconductor memory presents an increasing danger for potential data loss . These unique conditions introduce a risk of potential data loss. The write cache mirroring provides integrity for cached data if a Storage Controller fails in a dual-controller configuration. BBU Read Write cache with mirroring doubles the degree of data safety 2 QES and ZFS (Zettabyte File System) The QNAP Enterprise-class NAS series leverages the extensive native functionality of ZFS to ensure persistent, reliable logical volume management, protection against data corruption, seamless capacity expansion, flexible storage pool management, several data integrity mechanisms, unlimited snapshots, and unlimited clones. QES also features advanced technologies for efficient space utilization including deduplication, inline compression, and thin provisioning to maximize ROI on storage usage. Intelligent Storage Manager The QES Storage Manager neatly presents tools and options for managing system storage with an intuitive graphical interface. From reviewing the system storage allocation in the Dashboard, to managing volumes, storage pools, disks and iSCSI storage, or even the Snapshot function, the Storage Manager provides a centralized place to simplify hard drive management and to maximize storage usage. Dashboard The Storage Manager dashboard provides an overview for administrators to monitor and manage storage allocations easily. QES provides a secure and flexible way to store and manage data stored on your ES NAS. This next generation, enterprise-grade volume management toolset offers powerful features such as storage pooling with multiple RAID groups, thin-provisioned volumes with space reclamation, and online capacity expansion. Storage management IT administrators can monitor HDD allocation status for RAID groups in addition to individual HDD information. This ensures that there are no idle HDDs, maximizing utilization of the storage resources. They can also aggregate multiple RAID groups into a single storage pool to flexibly utilize the storage capacity. This provides further degree of redundancy, allowing for better protection against multiple disk failures in large-capacity environments. 3 Enterprise ZFS NAS Space allocation QES supports the creation of multiple LUNs/share folders within a storage pool. View all available storage pools with different RAID groups, share folders, and iSCSI LUNs from a single interface. This enables the expansion or removal of current pools, setting of threshold values for capacity consumption alerts, and RAID group management. Businesses can utilize this flexible storage capability to facilitate various business applications based on different work groups. Storage pools and LUNs can also be extended without interrupting services. Thin provisioning Over-allocation enables a server to view more storage capacity is actually available in a storage pool. This accommodates flexible usage patterns of multiple users. Further, the physical storage capacity is used only when files are written by the application, improving utilization rates. Dynamically and efficiently, use storage spaces with incremental allocation. Thick provisioning Physical storage capacity is dedicated during the initial allocation of the storage space. Specifically define all storage space that cannot be used by other LUNs. iSCSI LUN QES supports block-level iSCSI LUN. It supports different types of configuration for server connections: 1) single LUN or multiple LUNs per iSCSI target and 2) multiple iSCSI targets for a single LUN. Deploy block-level iSCSI LUN in a storage pool to reduce overhead and improve overall read/write performance. 4 Data Self-healing Robust data integrity is one of the major characteristics that distinguish ZFS from other file systems. ZFS is designed to protect the user's data on disk against silent data corruption caused by incidents including metadata errors and bugs in disk firmware. Data integrity is achieved by using a checksum. When a block is accessed, its checksum is calculated and compared with the stored checksum value. If the checksums do not match, then ZFS can heal the data using the data storage's redundancy features. Application Application Application ZFS Mirror ZFS Mirror ZFS Mirror Discovering data with checksum errors Fetch correct data from the mirrored blocks Recover blocks with errors Robust RAID-Z data protection on ZFS RAID-Z outperforms traditional RAID technology with better efficiency in handling petabyte-size data collections. And when combined with the copy-on-write transactional semantics of ZFS, write hole errors can be eliminated. ZFS RAID-Z ZFS ZFS ZFS ZFS ZFS Storage Pool Block ZFS ZFS ZFS ZFS ZFS Copy on Write Storage Pool Power Failure During Write (CoW) old old old old old old old old old old NEW Checksum Checksum Checksum Checksum Checksum Checksum Checksum Checksum Checksum Checksum Checksum end-point to end-point data integrity check Traditional RAID Ext4 Ext4 Volume Volume Power Failure During Write Pool Block Parity Check 5 old old old old Pool old Parity =0 old old old old NEW old Parity =Garbage Enterprise ZFS NAS Deduplication Server virtualization and virtual desktop applications result in a great deal of redundant data of operating systems and application data stored on disk. In some instances data redundancy can approach 95%. With the integrated deduplication of ZFS, disk space can be efficiently preserved. Deduplication tables can also be cached in solid-state drives to accelerate deduplication performance. C A B C D B A B A A Delete duplicated data D B B C A Original data A B C D Duplicated data is deleted Inline Compression QES based on ZFS enables efficient and real-time data compression. In comparison to similar storage devices of the same capacity, the ES 1642 dc/ ES 1640 dc achieves higher data compression and deduplication, ensuring the most optimized disk utilization and further increasing the overall return on investment. Reduced by Before compression After compression 20-50% capacity Enable deduplication or compression when creating shared folders or iSCSI LUNs. These two functions can be enabled at any time by modifying the properties of the shared folders or iSCSI LUN. 6 Snapshot (local snapshot) and SnapSync (remote snapshot replication) QNAP Snapshot technology uses copy-on-write to record a file's status. If there is a problem with a file, blocks containing the old data can be recovered quickly, allowing a complete snapshot version of the file system to be restored. This greatly enhances a business's Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO). QNAP Snapshot technology performance improvements The block-based QNAP Snapshot Technology fully supports over 65 thousand snapshots on LUNs and shared folders. Block-based snapshot technology only backs up modified data both increasing efficiency, and saving space. Schedule snapshots to minutes, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly intervals for fine grained control to suit enterprise requirements of improving Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) and Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) while retaining the desired number of versions with the allocated space. A B C Snapshot 1 Snapshot 2 Block Level C1 File Level A B C A B C1 Only modified data is backed up to save space and increase efficiency. Whole data backup (higher space requirement and reduced efficiency). Local Snapshot provides continuous data protection Low-impact, small-sized, and user recoverable snapshots offer more benefits of storage administration compared to traditional file copies, which are often stored as a single large data file.For example, choose to recover a file in a folder or, recover the entire folder instantly from the easy-to-use GUI. Intuitive interface with granular data visibility The QNAP Snapshot provides tools in Storage Manager to help you find specific files to recover. These tools enable you to easily view files and folders within a snapshot, browse through chronologically ordered snapshots and quickly find specific files to recover. 7 Enterprise ZFS NAS Snapshot clones as writeable snapshots Clone a snapshot as a share folder or LUN for quick file access, eliminating long restore times and reserving sizeable space for storing backups. The files in a snapshot clone can be freely edited by users. Rsync/NAS-to-NAS integration The Rsync (Real Time Sync) function in Backup Station automatically detect whether the system supports Snapshots. The Rsync function takes snapshots of the volume before starting replication and then backs up snapshots to a remote server. This greatly enhances data integrity. VMware/Microsoft VSS integration with QNAP Snapshot Agent QNAP Snapshot fully supports virtual machine snapshot capture on VMware and Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) deployments. Before taking snapshots, the Snapshot Agent notifies VMware or Microsoft VSS to stop accessing iSCSI LUNs both ensuring data integrity and reducing system overhead. SnapSync for remote snapshot replication SnapSync enables you to replicate share folders/LUNs between different remote servers using snapshot technology as part of a comprehensive strategy for data backup. Additionally, this approach helps to reduce storage and bandwidth usage. Enterprise-class disaster recovery QES SnapSync captures snapshots and backs up local shared folders and iSCSI LUN snapshots to a specified destination over IP. After creating a first-time full backup, SnapSync targets only changed blocks. This significantly reduces time needed for capture snapshots. QNAP Site Recovery Agent plug-ins for VMware Site Recovery Manager fully support remote array backup, to ensure a comprehensive, enterprise-grade remote backup solution. If a user encounters a local computer equipment problem or interruption in the Internet service, they can restart essential services in a short time at the remote location. And the services can be resumed back by the primary server after successful system recovery.

Further, use SnapSync to achieve a consistent remote/off-site backup. Snapshot Turbo NAS and JBOD Volume Volume Snapshot / Snapshot Clone Remotely store Snapshot iSCSI LUN Application-consistent Snapshots with Snapshot Agent Snapshot Agent for iSCSI LUN enables connecting an Enterprise-class NAS with remote servers (VMware vCenter or Windows Server) to ensure consistent snapshots. On those remote servers,running applications (VMware virtual machines, Hyper-V virtual machines, SQL Server, Windows file server, etc.) will write/flush data from memory to the iSCSI LUN prior the snapshot capture. This ensures application consistency and includes all necessary data for an application-consistent restore point. QNAP also provide Snapshot Agent for VSS Hardware Provider for Windows so that the Windows backup software can initiate a snapshot request to an ES1642dc / ES1640dc to offload the Snapshot process to the NAS reducing the load on the Windows server. VSS Hardware Provider Work Flow 1 The backup software sends a snapshot request to Windows 3 ES NAS receives the request and takes a snapshot for iSCSI LUN Snapshot Agent VSS hardware provider TM 2 Windows VSS flushes the data to iSCSI LUN and sends the request to VSS hardware provider 4 ES NAS sends back the snapshot for the backup software to execute backup jobs iSCSI LUN Snapshot Agent 2 Work Flow TM Snapshot Agent 3 iSCSI LUN Snapshot Agent activates VSS in windows to flush data to iSCSI LUN 1 ES NAS needs to start a snapshot job Or does a VMware snapshot of all the VMs in the iSCSI LUN Snapshot Agent replies that snapshot can be done 4 ES NAS needs to start a snapshot job 10 Virtualization applications with VMware® / Hyper-V™ The ES1642dc / ES1640dc supports iSCSI and NFS protocols, and is virtualization ready - VMware® Ready™ and Microsoft® Hyper-V™ compatible, to provide businesses with powerful and flexible storage solutions for virtualization applications.

Developing a comprehensive enterprise security strategy can facilitate greater control over your threat management activities and help improve protection of your critical data assets. QNAP helps you to minimize the risk of data breaches with our six data protection mechanisms, allowing you to focus more on using your data rather than worrying about it. Transmission encryption QNAP Remote Snapshot Replica Data Data encryption QNAP Snapshot technology Network environment protection Account security and system notifications 1.Network environment protection Connection management (black/white list) Allow or deny specific IP addresses or subnets to connect to the NAS. This increases connection safety by creating lists of allowed and blocked IP addresses. For example, block an IP address from accessing the ES 1642 dc/ ES1640dc for one hour, one day, or permanently based on the criteria that it has over five failed login attempts in the last minute. Servers of the blocked IP will be unable to connect to the ES 1642 dc/ES 1640 dc. Block a user who has stayed online for too long or logged in from suspicious IPs to enhance system security further. Service binding The ES 1642 dc/ES 1640 dc are equipped with multiple Ethernet ports, and can permit data access through every port . Service binding allows users to bind network interfaces with certain services (e.g. critical company data can be accessed only by specific personnel through specific protocol or allowed internal IPs) to enhance system security. In addition to security protection, service binding with LAN ports can ensure critical services get dedicated bandwidth. 13 Web SMB SSH QES SMB Enterprise ZFS NAS 2.Account security and system notifications Push service In addition to email and SMS, you can get messages sent to your mobile devices in the event of a system failure or other warnings. This keeps you updated with the latest system status so that you can take immediate action to rectify the situation and reduce the risk of data loss. 3.Protection by transmission encryption Network transmission encryption Advanced AES encryption ensures the security of shared folders. Without the key, no one can access the data in encrypted folders or files. Data transmitted over the Internet can also be encrypted to protect data security when using services such as FTP, WebDAV or in File Station. QNAP NAS provides SSL connectivity, and SSH encryption to secure data transmission and authentication. System administrators can restrict access to HTTPS (SSL over HTTP) encrypted connections. SFTP is also supported for transmission security and file access. The SSH encrypted connection provides another layer of protection for data transmission over public networks. 4.Data encryption Shared folder and LUN encryption QES offers LUN/shared folder encryption to protect the data stored on the ES1642dc/ES1640dc. The system will ask for the encryption key when mounting the encrypted LUN and the data is inaccessible without it. This function effectively protects data from being accessed if the entire device or individual drives are stolen. LUN 5.QNAP Snapshot QNAP's whole volume/ LUN Snapshot employs Copy-on-Write technology to record file state. If system failures occur, you can immediately revert the system to a specific state earlier in time. 6.SnapSync By using the SnapSync function in Backup Station, you can also back up snapshots to a remote site. With so many layers of protection, you will never worry about data loss again. For more information on Snapshot, refer to the chapter about Snapshot and SnapSync. 14 The all-new, all-inclusive operating system - QES 1.1.2 Engineered from the popular system architecture of the QNAP QTS OS with its simple and intuitive interface, QES enables consolidated management of various storage systems across different product lines and a reduced learning curve. From virtual desktop to the cloud, the QES OS on the ES1642dc / ES1640dc not only provides a solid foundation for rapid server virtualization and applications for remote virtual desktop but also paves the way for rapid hybrid cloud infrastructure provisioning. Simple and intuitive QES desktop The QES intelligent desktop allows you to easily operate the ES1642dc/ES1640dc without prior knowledge. It provides convenience access to all management tasks, including launching the applications, creating desktop shortcuts and monitoring system status. 15 Multitasking vs. customized desktop Smart dashboard The new QES system dramatically improves your efficiency by allowing you to open multiple windows and run multiple tasks without waiting for the previous one to end.

ESXi ESXi ESXi vSphere Client 20 Enterprise case studies Case 1: Deploying a remote virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) The QNAP ES NAS series can be deployed as robust desktop virtualization solutions that enable IT organizations to reap the benefits of traditional server-based computing without the challenges that often accompany serverbased solutions. By leveraging the benefits and advantages of VDI, IT organizations can transition away from the era of distributed PC computing towards cloud computing and the delivery of user desktops as a service. Segregation of operating environments from applications provides an inherent layer of security. Administrators can consolidate and maintain a small number of core desktop images or pools that everyone can use. Implementing a standardized solution drives down the total cost of ownership (TCO) and helps minimize the complexity and unpredictability of a customized solution. VDI centralizes the access control and confines corporate data to the data center and provides advanced security measures. VDI enables organizations to extend the value of their infrastructure and desktop virtualization environments to encompass not only desktops in the data center, but also applications and the delivery of these environments securely to remote clients. However, the VDI administrator faces critical challenges that need to be addressed before a desktop can be made ready for the end user. One such challenge is what is termed VDI `Boot storm´. A boot storm occurs when numerous users of a VDI all attempt to boot simultaneously from a shared storage device, like at the start of a workday, causing a substantial spike in IO traffic and putting a temporary strain on the system hosting the virtual machines, including storage, network connectivity, and processor resources. Implementing a read cache across an array of SSDs is the most common remedy to resolve the increased workload during workload ramp-up, and unexpected resource spikes. The QNAP ES1642dc and ES1640dc with QES fully support an SSD read cache to maintain the required IOPS. Additionally, where VDI creates a great deal of data redundancy (hundreds of operating systems connect to a single clone) QES supports block-level de-duplication and compression to further improve disk utilization and reduce power requirements, significantly reducing overall TCO.
